I think he'd be a very good late round pick for the Texans. He didn't get used much in college but New Mexico's passing game was a hot mess this season. His numbers, athleticism, and the fact his brother is on the team tells me that he's worth the minimal risk.

That said, with the final pick of the draft the colts select WR Rodney Smith, Florida state. 6'5" 225 lbs, 4.43 forty. Good athleticism, good body control. Will contribute a bit for the colts immediately and will be this years Marques colston.

Might be a good player for the texans to consider late in the actual draft.

I had fun with this one. The Dolphins have so many needs and so many draft picks to fill them with. They will likely end up trading one of their second rounders for OT Albert or sign Winston if that trade fails.

They need to upgrade their pass rush and DE rotation desperately. Werner and Carradine are good additions. Wilson and Slay are also good prospects at corner to replace the loss of Smith and Davis. I like the offensive lineman I was able to get. Both guys add depth to the interior of the line. Thomas may actually end up at LT.

It might seem odd to take 3 TEs but Miami needs both blocking and receiving TEs. Kelce could be an everydown starter, along with Dustin Keller. Lutzenkirchen and Ford were both solid college TEs. I wanted to completely change their TE group.

Andre Ellington should contribute some right away after the Dolphins lost Reggie Bush. Lamar Miller and Daniel Thomas will fight for that starting job. Tavarres King is a nice little 5th round receiver to add to a weak group.

I wish I could have done better at OT and at WR, but I didn't want to reach for a OT when I was pretty sure the Dolphins would go after a vet.

I just wanted to thank everybody who participated in this yrs TT Mock Draft. I appreciate the time that some of the best and brightest mockers spent to make this yrs mock a success. Very few MB's have members that will contribute to a full 7 rd mock.

I hope it was as much fun for y'all as it was for me. This mock helps give the entire MB a sense of where certain players should be valued. It is a guide for people who dont follow the draft as closely as we do.

I would like to give a special thanks to 76, Dutch and Blake for helping me with this. Without them I doubt the draft would've been a success. As work has become hectic.

Hope everybody had a good time and will continue to participate next yr.

That right there is a great draft. 7-8 contributors as rookies, Ireland can only hope to do that well. Kelce/King/Ellington/Lutzenkirchen all have a chance to contribute in varying degrees as rookies. That's quite a haul for that late in the draft.

Seconded. I can't believe we actually made it through all the picks! Pretty cool, as I don't think that has happened before. Usually things die out around the 5th-6th round. Anyways, thanks everyone for participating and keeping it moving along. Enjoy the real draft on Thursday night!

Thanks to 76, dutch and steel. And also everyone else that participated and helped along the way.

Tried to rep you guys, but I must spread it around.

4th'd!

Yeah , thanks for all the effort that went into this exercise. Happy to have participated for the first time since we moved to this site.

I think we learned quite a bit about some players as well as the perception of specific positions and how we +/- value them.

It''ll be interesting to see if the NFL GM's look at those positions (WR , DT , ILB , OLB and RT) they way many uf us seem to , some of which I believe is fueled by the Texans needs almost as much as the needs of those other teams.
